There have been grumblings around the office this week about how gloomy the pre-payday week can be especially with Christmas not far away. So to get us through the week I thought I would put together my top 5 pre-payday cheer up treats, all of which are under £5 so won't break the bank.

1. Mavala nail varnish in Amethyst - £4 www.beautybay.comI'm loving this Winter nail varnish shade at the moment. I love the quality of Mavala
nail varnishes and at £4 it's a beauty steal I think.

The Melting Snowman "Hot Toddy" bath melt from Lush is my favourite bath product at the moment. I have to confess that having only purchased it for the first time a few days ago, I am very late in my discovery of this amazing bath melt.

I love scarves!! I have lots of them and I really don’t need
any more, but I do get a little Winter buzz when I find a lovely scarf that I know will
keep me warm and cosy over the Winter months. I’ve had my eye on this one from
Zara for a little while now and when I saw it looking lovely and cosy on my
beautiful best friend, I knew I had to have one of my own.

I’d had my eye on the Bumble
and Bumble Semi-Sumo hair wax for quite a while, but when I went into Space NK and spotted the Bumble and Bumble Thickening Creme Contour a fairly new release from Bumble and Bumble, I knew that this
would be better suited to my hair needs.

Let me introduce you to my new super duper Camera!! I finally took the plunge & have made the shift up to DSLR with a Canon EOS 600D. I've been saving up for this for a while & having sold my Fuji Finepix bridging camera I had been reliant on my iPhone 5 for a good while. There are some good deals out there in the run up to Christmas & Canon are also doing a £30 cash back offer.

I decided on the Canon 600D after doing quite a bit of reasearch & talking to other bloggers. The deciding factor for me was the flip out screen as I'd like to feature more make up looks & swatches on my blog & with that in mind I also purchased the Canon camera remote control which will really help when taking self portraits.

There is a lot I have to learn about the 600D so if you have any tips & hints on how to get the best shots, I'd love to hear from you.
